Hi! Structured indexes are great, thanks a lot for this! However they don't work well for Bison for three different reasons (two "bugs", and one "missing feature"), presented in the attachement.

1. As you can see, the merged indexes do not get subentries, but plain old
entries.
2. api.cindex is typeset in rm, not in tt as I would expected for the code
index.
3. I would love to be able to use @subentry in @deffn like structures. Indeed,
in Bison that's the way we define our "variable": with its defining %define
directive. Unfortunately that's not what happens here, and I can understand if
you reject this.
Cheers!
